    I didn't read the article... Was it about implanting cyborg knees? If so, let's sign Roy.

    I had this procedure done for a bone lesion last year after they had tried a microfracture type procedure 16 years ago that did nothing....although I needed a donor piece since it was too large to take from my own knee. So far so good...for a non pro athlete with a desk job!

    Tough job for your poor knee. Wrong career choice. You should have become an NBA player.

    Microfracture isn't what ended Odens career. I'm sure if someone who needed 3 of them, plus a blown kneecap, would've found another way to end his career prematurely.

    Sounds like it didn't help. I've always had a sneaking suspicion it wasn't the very best long term route to go. Glad we can finally (hopefully) move past them.

    A rebuilt Roy would do wonders for this team. Can you imagine him teaming up with Aldridge and Lillard?

    I think Dame would be told to go get his shine box and stand in the corner.
